Pittsburgh Steelers’ defensive tackle Cameron Heyward is starting to make batting passes at the line of scrimmage a work of art.
Coming into Sunday’s game against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday Night Football at Sofi Stadium with six on the season, Heyward was becoming a real weapon in the trenches when it came to getting his hands up in passing lanes, helping out the linebackers and defensive backs behind him.
After recording an interception off of his own batted pass two weeks ago against the Chicago Bears on Monday Night Football, Heyward came up huge again in primetime, batting a Justin Herbert pass into the air in the fourth quarter, resulting in an interception by Cameron Sutton, setting up a Ben Roethlisberger to Pat Freiermuth touchdown, knotting the game up at 34-34.
